"Britain's government failed to determine whether Russia meddled in the 2016 referendum on membership in the EU."

Like what could there be?

Only meddling I saw was from the BBC, and other media. Oh yes, and that Indo-Guyanese bird.

Huge disappointment within the Intelligence and Security Committee.

Nothing to see, move along.

Didn't Warren Buffet get stitched up with Tesco?...

Given how UK banks are treated I would highly doubt that.

"Had enough of his dominance"

Flatulence and puerile drivel you mean. Dominance implies he won the arguments, which he clearly never has done.

Rupert Hargreaves writing in the Motley Fool gives his reasons why Warren Buffet could be interested in buying into Lloyds.

Jacko, you are such a poor loser.

It's not just Brexit he's got right, though - he's done something, finally, about the scandalous waste of money on foreign aid. If anything I'd say it's just Covid he's got wrong.

M2 got no qualms about Brexit, its everything else! I'm starting to wonder if Boris is on methamphetamine legal highs & baby bio? & I'm reading your posts and nodding. Hes only been in the job 5 minutes the countries fkd & hes continuing to fk it.....unbelievable!!

Do I sense that Brexiters are getting very defensive?

Could it be that those 'sunlit uplands' never actually existed and they're about to look very gullible?

LOL!

Last night the Tories used their majority to vote down an amendment to the trade bill to prevent the NHS being ring fenced in trade deals, leaving it wide open to being parcelled off to foreign investors, contrary to all the claims the Tories have made that 'the NHS is not for sale'.

Thanks Cretins!

Miner BHP warned of lower production for the year ahead. The pandemic has hit its copper business, reducing the workforce at its largest mine, while it also faces lower demand for gas.

What was Cheshire saying about copper?

The EU "struck a deal"... money must be payback with the Brussels rules. In other words, like an individual goes to the bank and borrow money..and on top of that, they must follow orders how the money must be invested.


Somethin which most euro countries, especially Italy, are not happy with and do not agree.

bad loans already an issue. The financial system is still broken. Covid loans are being used to cover up the old bad loans.

European banks braced for €800bn of loan losses if pandemic worsens (FT). UBS today saying similar thing. Will hold banks down IMO.

The UK reported a GBP 34.8 billion budget deficit in June of 2020 compared to a GBP 6.5 billion gap a year earlier and slightly higher than expectations of a GBP 34.3 billion shortfall.
Debt at the end of June 2020 was GBP 1,983.8 billion or 99.6% of the GDP, the highest debt to GDP ratio since the financial year ending March 1961.

Sterling moves slightly higher. ;))
